Detailed explanation-1: -Maltose is produced by the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch (a homopolysaccharide) catalyzed by the enzyme amylase.
Detailed explanation-2: -THE complete hydrolysis of starch yields the sugar d-glucose, or, as it is commonly known, dextrose. The hydrolysis is sup-posed to proceed by steps, various intermediate products being formed. These have often been enumerated as soluble starch, maltose and various dextrins.
Detailed explanation-3: -On hydrolysis of starch, the product which we get is glucose.
Detailed explanation-4: -When starch is hydrolyzed and broken down to small carbohydrate units, the iodine will not give a dark blue (or purple) color. The iodine test is used in this experiment to indicate the completion of the hydrolysis.
Detailed explanation-5: -The two products of hydrolysis of Sucrose are glucose and fructose.
